Chicago-area jobless rate hits 9% | Crain's Chicago Business

Yeah, I'm hurting bad and wondering why recruiters aren't responding to my applications and resume when I last worked at NASA!

At least all of my Unemployment Extension benefits of $408 weekly goes to spending money! NOT RENT!

Working at NASA means nothing. Unless you have a Ph.D. in something ridiculously complicated and scientific in nature, I'm going to assume you were a secretary.

Also, most places don't hire convicted felons.

Yeah, a lot of the people at NASA are nothing special. It IS a government agency.

Could have been a dime a dozen Burger King or Jewel's Bagger job?

I never interview as a woman. I go in my boring man's suit!

I worked at NASA [Jacobs ESCG] as a Proengineer Designer Detailer.

If nobody hires felons then all a felon can do for money is rob and and steal from the yuppies that don't hire him!
